MojoHost Inks 10G deal with Level3, cancels WV Fiber, upgrades Internap FC Platform - GoFuckYourself.com

Brad Mitchell · 08-05-2008, 12:15 PM

Hello Everyone,

We have been a customer of Level3 for most of the last six years but did not yet have a 10 Gigabit agreement ready for execution when our contract for 1 Gigabit service expired on June 30th. Today I am excited to announce MojoHost has signed an agreement with Level3 for 10 Gigabit service starting September 1st. We have tremendous regard for the quality of Level3's network and are excited to have them back in our premium blend of bandwidth.

It was my goal and expectation that today's announcement would represent network expansion. Unfortunately, after a trial of provider WV Fiber in July, MojoHost has decided to discontinue it's 10 Gigabit service with their network. The end result is still excellent, MojoHost has 61 Gigabit of full transit route connectivity plus 2 Gigabit of local peering fabric access.

MojoHost Connectivity Summary:

Level3 Communications 10G
Telecom Italia 10G
Savvis 10G
Hurricane Electric 10G
TeliaSonera 10G
Tata Communications 10G
Global Crossing 1G
Local Peering Fabric 2x1G

Finally, MojoHost has completed an infrastructure upgrade which utilizes the Internap Flow Control Platform (FCP) 10G as a replacement for the FCP 5200 series. We have now significantly increased our ability to optimize BGP routing and provider performance. For more information about the Internap FCP 10G click here.

If you would like more information about our network or services please feel free to contact me directly anytime.

Sincerely,

Brad Mitchell

Congrats - while I do not host with you, your honesty in telling me my set up you can not properly support and refer me to another host puts you in a class of its own.

AWESOME! please please please have MSSQL back up support.

.NET (C#) and MSSQL are going to take over the world one day. I'm suprised more adult is not using it. It really just blows PHP/MySQL out of the water.

Hrmmm. I'm going to have to lie and point out the yellow one that used to belong to another carrier, Level3's not getting turned up until the last week of this month.

This is all on my list somewhere... Crazy is having over 700 servers and less than 20 that are Windows. Never would have guessed that 6 years ago.

We don't do much in the Microsoft realm but yes there are some certifications floating around our support staff. We do skills testing up front and significant training post-hire so honestly this isn't something that we keep track of.

We've been busy with other pinned announcements the last two weeks.. so finally this one gets a turn. The thread replies aren't truly my goal, really it's just the page views and getting solid information out there that I focus on

I would love to share my rationale but it would be inappropriate to disclose our exact reasons for discontinuing service. WV Fiber operates a large international network that serves *many* of our competitors, several ISPs and enterprises of all sizes and types.

What I can share is that we have very high expectations for performance and reliability from our carriers. Our clients pay for exceptional service and we are committed to exceeding their expectations. This was actually MojoHost's second experience on WV Fiber's network in the last twelve months. After giving them this second opportunity to do business with MojoHost we came to the conclusion (again) that they were not ideally suited to participate in our premium carrier blend.

Sincerely,

Brad Mitchell
